Mansion in Dallas, Texas, Listed for $135 Million

Earlier today, we told you about a mansion that sold for $117.5 million that was the second highest selling private residence ever sold in the USA. A ranch in Montana, which sold last year at $132.5 million, is the current most expensive private house sold in the nation.

Well, if sports-team mogul Tom Hicks gets his asking price of $135 million, it will be the new numero uno in the United States. We tip our hat to the Real Estalker for this report.

The grounds are a studied mix of manicured and rustic and include meadow-like rolling lawns, long allees of mature trees, a spring-fed creek criss-crossed by stone bridges, rose and vegetable gardens, several ponds and water features and dense forests woven with quiet pathways. There's also a resort-scaled swimming pool, and adjacent a pool house with recreation facilities and movie theater, a tennis court and second guesthouse.
